hahaha

or


"yes you're power is out and it'll be on between this time and this time"

[Partizan]

haha awsome

but what if u get some immigrant from eastern europe [me for example] who's parents barely speak a word of engrish

[krisamata]

omg i've gotten many already...

its hard man...OH SO HARD....


buuut if its really bad...then we can tell them to go online and apply for service if thats what they wanna do...or we have a number to call an interperter...but they dont want us using it a lot cause its some ridiculous amount like 5 bucks a minute or something

[Partizan]

hahahaha...

"Whhhhy my heet not vurrking???!?! "*starts swearing in slavic language*

if they cant find their way over the phone i doubt that they'll be able to over the web

[krisamata]

hahaha ya true enough.


the funniest thing though...is when they come through saying they cant speak english...

and when i finally bring up their account and tell them they're about to be disconnected...all of a sudden PERFECT ENGLISH!! haha

[Partizan]

hahahaha then they get their shit together

u were probally talkin to some lazy motherfuckers from montenegro ... in serbia ... they're known for their stupidity and laziness

[krisamata]

hahahahaha ya probably.

[Partizan]

if they dont speak english u can always try morse code over the phone im sure they'll get that
